      1. Update your Node dependencies

        npm ci
        

      2. Run the jsdoc tool:

        grunt jsdoc
        

        1. Confirm that there were no errors
      3. Open your site in your browser and navigate to the jsdocs (by appending /jsdoc to the site name) i.e. http://hostname/path/to/your/site/jsdoc
      4. Browse the documentation
        1. Confirm that most documentation is present

      Note: This issue does not seek to fix all documentation, but attempts to fix a great deal of it. More will come as we fix code.

      Additional testing step for jsdoc linting

      1. Run JSDoc manually:

        npx jsdoc -c .grunt/jsdoc/jsdoc.conf.js --pedantic
        

        1. Confirm there was no error or output
      2. Edit lib/amd/src/str.js
      3. Add a new line just before the @copyright line:

        /**
         * Fetch and return language strings.
         *
         * @package   core
         * @module     core/str
         * @copyright  2015 Damyon Wiese <damyon@moodle.com>
         * @license    http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/gpl.html GNU GPL v3 or later
         * @since      2.9
         */
        

      4. Run JSDoc manually:

        npx jsdoc -c .grunt/jsdoc/jsdoc.conf.js --pedantic
        

        1. Confirm there was an error:

          WARNING: The @package tag does not permit a value; the value will be ignored. File: str.js, line: 16
          

      5. Check the exit code (must be the next command):

        echo $?
        

        1. Confirm that it was non-zero (i.e. it should be 1).

    Description

      This issue is a placeholder to integrate jsdoc with Moodle to allow us to generate JS documentation easily for all AMD-based JS.

      This could also (possibly) document YUI and older-style module.js files, but those are low on the priorities.

      This is now significantly easier now that we have GruntfileComponents.js and components.json.
